    What do you like best about the product?
    The SaaS option reduces implementation time because the only step required is installing the agents. Depending on your infrastructure, it can be simpler if you have access to the backend address and port, as a few simple commands will allow you to install all the agents. Sensors are deployed automatically, meaning only one agent per server is needed. By following the documentation, you may encounter certain technologies that require adjustments to send or generate trace information. However, if you follow the instructions, you'll quickly see the dependency maps generated automatically.
    When I started using the application, some features were not available, such as log monitoring and the ability to create alerts based on logs. We submitted an idea, and the support team informed us that it was being considered. Now, these features are available.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    When I first started using the application in SaaS mode, the look and feel were different compared to today. The navigation bar and menus have changed, and now the application feels heavier, taking longer to load and feeling slower overall
    The Integration with Cognos Analytics is not easier as with Grafana, documentation for this integration was not available.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Visibility across all services and applications and MTTR (Mean Time to Resolution) reduction. In some cases, when the applications are created don't follow a design and built by default, it means deploy features to resolve or execute a funtion, at the end some companies lose visibility, and when a issue arise, it takes much longer to resolve them. In the past customer only had infraestructure monitoring, and one event of High CPU usage didn't provide enough context.
    Once they implemented Instana, they gained insights into relations between some endpoint or services that they didn´t know. This visibility helped them better understand the situation, reducing resolution time. By using smart alerts, they can even identify potential issues early and take action before any negative impact occurs.

    What do you like best about the product?
    It is a powerful and easy-to-use observability solution that is constantly innovating.
    Its intuitive and lightweight interface provides the information we need to gain visibility into ecosystems that are increasingly complex and expansive.
    The ability to contextualize and correlate elements of a transaction allows us to discover where and what the likely cause of the failure is, as well as the possibility to create native or integration-based automatic actions.
    The IBM support community is available to assist us with questions and special configurations of our environments.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    It is focused on modern technologies, and legacy systems in our environment are not yet fully supported, although important legacy platforms have been added to the catalog.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    There are many pieces of modern technology distributed across the ecosystem that we sometimes don’t fully understand or know how they interact, and the solution, with its intelligence and analytical capabilities, helps us discover how they are interconnected and how we can optimize them. It provides helpful information with its out-of-the-box features to understand situations, and we learn more about the environment.
